Chapter 15: What is missing in Grand Paris
Training day.
Assistant coach Michel stood on the sidelines and he watched every player in Grand Paris.
The training was positive and the performance was good, but Michelle's brows were tightly locked.
The performances of the Grand Parisians are dominant in Ligue 1, but they have some problems to overcome if they are to play in Europe.
For example, the soft style of the ball!
Michel recently studied Paris Saint-Germain and said of her: 'This is a team with no history, but enough ambitions!' ’
But now that the Champions League has achieved results, ambition alone is not enough.
Why Tottenham won the Champions League last season!
This is not only dependent on the performance and run-in of each player, but also on the unique team atmosphere that Tottenham has formed over the past 100 years, also known as heritage.
There is such a thing as a substance, which cannot be seen or touched.
But it can make a huge difference when it matters most.
Just like a lot of comebacks, this is in those teams with deep backgrounds, because they have spiritual beliefs, they have their own persistence, and they can play 200% in the field.
And Grand Paris lacks precisely these things.
This also made her lose frequently in European competitions and was unable to win crucial matches.
But this kind of thing is not a must-have, it needs to be constantly accumulated and nourished, stimulated by victory after victory, and there must be a player who can make the final decision.
These... Does Grand Paris have one?
No!
Grand Paris bought Neymar at that time, and what they wanted was for Neymar to inject faith into the team and stimulate this team with no history with one victory after another.
But the idea of a big Paris is a bit whimsical, and Neymar obviously can't take on the task, and from now on, he's a great player, but he can't be a great player.
In him, I don't feel any sense of responsibility and decisiveness!
What about Yile?
Michel also thought that Yile fits these things very well, he is a player who can step up when it matters most, and he also has the qualities that can be a great player.
But Yile's character is a big question.
His personality is too shy.
He's not a qualified boss.
Buffon?
Forget it, Grand Paris will not let a player with Juventus colors become their faith.
Looking at it this way, Michelle is really a little troubled.
He scratched his head fiercely, turned around and shouted, "I'll go find Boas, you guys keep an eye on it." ”
With that, he walked to the training building.
......
Inside the head coach's office.
Villas-Boas was sitting in front of the TV, watching the footage of the game, which was 15 years old, between Millwall and Wolves.
Knock knock!!
There was a knock on the door, and as soon as Boas opened his mouth, Michelle pushed the door in.
"Man, we need to buy players!"
Michelle said bluntly.
Boas rolled his eyes and said, "The summer window is over, and the club will not allocate funds." ”
Michelle walked over and sat directly across from Boas, just blocking Boas's view, which forced him to watch the game sideways.
Michelle said solemnly: "You know, the problem we face is very serious! ”
Still staring at the TV, Boas said, "What do you say?" “
"What more could we have with that?" Michelle grumbled dissatisfied.
Boas sighed and said, "Man, that's not something you should worry about. ”
Michelle frowned: "If we don't solve this problem, the Champions League won't go far at all!" ”
“SO?”
Michelle got up, turned off the TV directly, slammed the table, and said solemnly: "Solve it!" ”
Seeing everyone who saw it, Boas rubbed his eyebrows helplessly and said; "Okay, let's talk."
Michelle sat back down and said; "We need to buy a big guard nucleus, preferably the kind that can be made of iron blood, the kind that can be trained to be a captain."
Boas grinned; "You're asking too much, just I bought Ramos, do you think the fans in Paris will make him captain?"
"I don't care!"
Boas: "......."
"It's a serious problem, and you need to take it seriously!" Michelle said solemnly.
Boas spread his hands and said, "Well, what you want to tell me about the leader, right?" ”
"Faith, to be exact!"
Boas: "Actually, we can let him develop on his own, and leadership and faith are not artificial. ”
"But the problem is, I don't see anyone in our squad who has that quality!"
"Yes!"
"Who?" "You're not going to tell me it's the Brazilian, man, we all know he's not that kind of material!" ”
"I didn't say it was Neymar." Boas laughed: "If I say easy, how do you feel?" ”
Michelle paused for a moment, then looked at Boas dumbfounded, and said, "Are you kidding? I'll admit, we both like Yi, but he's just like the Brazilians, they're not that kind of material. ”
"Why?"
Michelle looked ridiculous and said, "Do you really think that Yi can become a leader?" ”
"I didn't say that!" Boas waved his hand.
Michelle was a little angry, this thing is playing on himself?
Looking at Michelle's fiery eyes, Boas sneered, no longer beating around the bush, and said; 'Man, you're thinking too complicated, because you've been working in the Premier League, so you've always linked the so-called faith to the iron side, but there can be many kinds of beliefs.
"Kindness, trust, tenacity, etc... These are beliefs! ”
"The iron and blood you are talking about is just a way, and this set is not good for Grand Paris!"
Michelle was visibly stunned for a moment, and then said; "Even so, we don't even have a way."
"Yes!"
Michelle's muscles flare.
Ahem...
"Dude, don't be angry!" Boas hurriedly reassured the other party, and then smiled; "You don't really think Yi is a weak person, do you?"
"He's a player from Millwall, do you think a pack of lions would raise a lamb?"
'In the past, at Millwall or Tottenham, there were people who took care of these things for him, so he could concentrate on playing and he could play according to his temperament. But you have to know that being shy doesn't mean you don't have a temper. ”
"He's not as friendly as he seems, but no one pushes him to a certain extent."
"Do you remember how Yi kicked De Bruyne down?"
Michelle recalled, I don't remember very clearly, it should be around the middle of the season, Tottenham Hotspur against Manchester City.
He vaguely remembered that it was De Bruyne who shook off Yile and passed a good pass, and then he was blown away by Yile in the second half.
Forehead..... Is this revenge?
Looking at Michelle's stunned expression, Boas raised his eyebrows and smiled: "So, you don't know Yi, he is not as generous as he seems, this guy is a cautious eye, and he does not admit defeat." ”
"A player who doesn't admit defeat, how much better do you think his temper can be? It's just that no one has touched his bottom line, so..."
With a snap, Boas clapped his hands and said; "All the conditions match!"
Michelle heard it really like that, and he couldn't help but wonder: "Do you want Yi to be the captain?" ”
"I didn't say that... Forehead.... What do you want? ”
Michelle: "┗|'O′|┛! ”
Michelle clutched the corner of the table and roared angrily; "You're breaking sentences, believe it or not I've flipped your table?!!"
Boas: "......."
Boas reluctantly explained: "Okay, Yi can be a spiritual leader, but he won't be the captain, the captain is the captain, faith is the faith, just like at Tottenham, you think about who is injecting passion into White Hart Lane?" ... At the Parc des Princes, he would do the same! ”
"All we need to do is wait, wait for someone to provoke Yi, let him completely break out, according to his careful eyes, there should be a lot of movement!"
Sneezing !!
Yi Le sneezed, and his body was cold.
Got a cold?
